Microsoft has unveiled a new gaming keyboard that looks capable of what most men isn’t, multitasking. SideWinder X4 comes with anti-ghosting technology that allows for an unmatched amounts of simultanous keys to be pressed down. The technology makes it possible for users to press no less than 26 keys at the same time, without missing a single command.
Microsoft says that extremely fast users will now be able to fully enjoy their skills without being limited by their keyboards.
The advanced technology takes anti-ghosting to the next level by allowing gamers to press up to 26 keys at once. Because each key is scanned independently by the keyboard hardware, each key press is correctly detected regardless of how many other keys are being pressed at the same time. The SideWinder X4 Keyboard excels where other keyboards fail, letting users execute key combinations and taking full advantage of their skill and speed.
The anti-ghosting aside, Microsoft has also blessed SideWinder X4 with macro recording for those who would rather push one key and let the computer do the rest. Users will also be able to save profiles where functions and of the keys and backlighting can be set individually.
Microsoft SideWinder X4 can be found in stores already and costs around $55.
